Subject: bug#36633: Scrolling by pixels: visible stretch glyphs overwrite header-line.
Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2019 21:26:32 +0900

I confirmed the existence of ghost (of the first line with green blocks)
shown on the headline significantly with 26.2 on macOS 10.6.8 and less
significantly with 26.2 on macOS 10.14.5.

The essence of related code is `set-window-vscroll'.

 (let ((n (frame-char-height)))
  (when (> n 0)
    (let ((vs0 (window-vscroll nil t)))
      (dolist (vs (number-sequence (1+ vs0) (+ vs0 n)))
        (set-window-vscroll nil vs t) (sit-for pixel-wait)))))

I do not know how to fix it.
